In case you were worried that the Republicans were obstructing this because they were honestly concerned about voters, they've come out and basically said their strategy would be to not hold a hearing, and if hillary is elected, approve the nomination so that she can't make an alternative pick. Democracy.

I doubt players are going to come out against Laroche in a situation that's basically "management v players" now, they are all in a union.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 01:49 PM) Babysitting and managing a WS at the same time is cute. having your kid get a teammate more seeds is a bit distracting. Do you even remember that situation? Baker was heavily criticized.

Ugh, I hate that.

UGH, don't like that Rollins was named. This will not die quickly. Someone put a shiny new object in front of the sport world. March Madness? perfect.

I am fine with KW doing this, but I also think it is probably coming off just like Goose Gossages rant to these players. Doesn't seem like it was handled well. I think it's nice of him to protect those that complained, but he should have realized how difficult it is to handle these things inhouse without media.

LOL Completely relevant!

I'm not sure when and where Martellus Bennett turned into this top 10 TE everyone makes him out to be. Add in the fact that he's obviously a f***ing good, I'm shocked they were even able to get what they did for him He was injured though. He was great the year before, and he both blocks well and is a good receiver. I obviously cannot understand what the practice/locker room is like, but would have rather they just made it work.

Just want to throw this out there: A lot of the clubhouse talk and distractions have revolved around them wanting to swear or be off the cuff. It's probably also just a distraction in that a lot of these guys have kids and have a paternal instinct. They are probably instinctually keeping an eye on the kid and paying attention to making sure he's not bored in a way they wouldn't if he wasn't there.

But we are a part of the moderator brotherhood

draw dropper?

My guess - they never explicitly mentioned 100%. I'm going to guess Adam mentioned how he likes to bring his kid around the clubhouse and sox said it's an open clubhouse. Pure speculation, but thinking Sox didn't realize full breadth of it being everyday, trip, etc

Thanks All, very excited. Should pop out in late September.

It's adorable Kaplan feels he can play reporter for the day!

That is the dumbest agreement I've ever heard, so I imagine it's false.

General petreaus actively gave up confidential personnel items in the field to his mistress and received probation, no, Hillary would not be in jail for her actions if not for Gregs conspiracy

Hey, wanted to update this. We hit 12 weeks today. Going to be a dad

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 16, 2016 -> 08:22 PM) Unfortunately the main criticism I've seen of him from the left is his record on civil liberties and criminal justice. But he's replacing Scalia, still amazing progress instead of that crap.

This seems like one of those situations to me where at first it's like, just one person to finally break it open: "Hey what a great kid, so nice seeing a kid around a kids game" "Hey cool, great kid" "Kid is our mascot! Totally great kid" "Isn't it kind of annoying having a kid around every day we are at work?" "OH GOD I THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY, IT DRIVES ME NUTS"

And then to blame all of the white mans problems on minorities, and tell the rest of the world to shove off! Trump is a temper tantrum. Being the governor of a 330 million person diverse nation is hard, being governor of the most influential country in the world is harder and more important. You want to change those things, you work on getting a bunch of house/senate/pres candidates that offer to change consitution to prevent that money influence. Removing the leadership doesn't remove their influence, they'll just fund the next groups.

I would not like to pay much more than 14 million for basically a DH.

Oh my god I had no idea he was getting that much. I knew it was big but I thought it decreased.
